Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said Wednesday that it is “unspeakable” that DACA recipients may be facing deportation.

WATCH:

Sanders, appearing on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” said, “I, and I think I speak for the vast majority of members of the Democratic caucus, we’re not going to desert these young people. This to my mind is one of the great moral crises of our time, as you’ve indicated, these are young people who were raised in the United States, they spent almost their whole lives here, they know no other country.” (RELATED: Bernie Sanders Claims ‘No One Wants’ A Border Wall)

He continued, “And, as a result of Trump’s precipitous action in September, when he rescinded the executive order that Obama established, these young people, if we do not get our act together, will be subjected to the possibility of deportation. This is unspeakable. It is unacceptable.” (RELATED: Liberals Love GOP Tax Plan — As Long As They Think It’s Bernie’s [VIDEO])
